Silva Stops Woodley In A Brutal Stoppage

Originally posted on BoxingNews.com | Last updated Dec 19, 2025 10:36 PM ET

Anderson Silva stopped Tyron Woodley in just two rounds during their cruiserweight clash, as you can see how the fight played out live.

Silva remains one of the most successful MMA-to-boxing converts in history. His most impressive boxing feat before the Woodley win was a victory against former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. back in 2021. Woodley wasn’t originally slated for this card. He stepped in on short notice after Silva’s original opponent, former UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman, was forced to withdraw due to an injury. Woodley is still searching for his first professional boxing victory.
